A Northern Ireland insurer was named Britain’s BEST Car Insurance Provider 2015 in the UK by readers of Auto Express magazine, The Belfast Telegraph reports.

IAM Surety – part of the company formerly known as Adelaide Insurance – was also named best value in the UK in 2012 and 2013. It’s good to hear they didn’t rest on their laurels and have come back this year with another big win.

Now, I know what you’re thinking – who the blue blazes are IAM Surety and Adelaide Insurance? Well, it could be that IAM Surety is the best insurance company you’ve never heard of… Adelaide were renamed Cornmarket Insurance Services last year when it adopted the name of its parent company and IAM Surety provides insurance for the Institute of Advanced Motorists.

Topping the checklist of qualities in helpfulness, friendliness and keeping their customers informed – as well as value for money – all of which Managing director Sam Geddis is pretty chuffed about explaining that “for Cornmarket this underlines the first class service our staff continues to deliver to IAM Surety customers and all our other insurance schemes. I am absolutely delighted that such a prestigious, UK wide and independent poll has recognised this.”

Auto Express are brimming with pride for the company’s award too – The Magazine’s Emily Lowe tells The Belfast Telegraph that it’s “a fantastic result that should definitely be celebrated. Our readers hold IAM Surety in high regard.”

Given that they ranked so highly in customer service, it’s clear that the company’s investment in staff has paid off. According to The Belfast Telegraph, employee numbers at IAM have grown from 23 to 90 in the past eight years. Hopefully they’ll all be out for a celebratory drink this Friday to toast their success.
